When you’re sick with a cold or flu, this cannabis cold flu remedy combines ancient herbal wisdom with cannabis-infused honey to create a soothing, warming tea that may help you recover faster. Fordee made this video while genuinely sick — still managing to show you the whole process from scratch.
Cannabis Cold Flu Remedy: What You Need
Here are the cannabis cold remedy recipe ingredients for 1 large mug:
- 1 mug of water (fill to top — you’ll lose some to evaporation)
- 1 inch (2.5 cm) fresh ginger, sliced into thin coins (no need to peel, just wash)
- ½ tsp ground turmeric (or 1 whole cinnamon stick)
- 1 tbsp dried mint (or a small handful of fresh mint)
- 2–3 orange or mandarin slices, lightly squeezed
- Juice of ½ lemon
- 1–2 tsp cannabis-infused honey (or infused maple syrup)
How to Make Cannabis Ginger Turmeric Tea
This cannabis ginger turmeric tea comes together in under 10 minutes on the stovetop:
- Add water to pot — Fill the pot with slightly more water than your mug holds, to account for evaporation during simmering.
- Add ginger, turmeric, mint, citrus — Drop sliced ginger into the cold water. Add ground turmeric (or a cinnamon stick), dried mint, and the lightly squeezed orange slices. Stir briefly.
- Bring to a boil, then simmer — Heat on high until boiling, then reduce to medium. Simmer for 4–5 minutes.
- Strain into your mug — Pour through a fine-mesh sieve directly into the mug to catch all the loose mint, ginger pieces, and citrus pulp.
- Add lemon juice — Squeeze half a lemon through a paper towel or cloth to filter out seeds. Stir into the tea.
- Add infused honey cold remedy — Once the tea has cooled to a drinkable temperature (not boiling — high heat degrades THC), stir in your cannabis-infused honey or infused maple syrup to taste. 1–2 tsp is a comfortable starting dose.
Why This Ginger Mint Cannabis Tea Works When You’re Sick
Each ingredient in this ginger mint cannabis tea sick-day formula plays a role:
- Ginger — Anti-inflammatory, helps with nausea and sore throat.
- Turmeric — Contains curcumin, known for anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that support heart health and immune function.
- Mint — Natural decongestant, soothes the throat, and adds cooling relief to a hot tea.
- Lemon — High in vitamin C, supports immune function, and brightens the flavor.
- Infused honey — Cannabis may reduce inflammation and promote relaxation, making rest easier. Honey alone soothes sore throats. Together they make a powerful infused honey cold remedy.
Infused Honey Cold Remedy: Dosing Tips
Add the cannabis-infused honey after straining and once the tea has cooled slightly. Boiling water can degrade cannabinoids — aim for a temperature that’s hot but drinkable (under 65°C / 150°F). Start with 1 tsp of infused honey and wait to see how the cannabis cold flu remedy affects you before taking more. If your infused honey is potent, even ½ tsp may be enough for relief and relaxation.
Fordee drinks this cannabis cold remedy recipe once a day when sick, supplemented with multivitamins and vitamin C. The combination of natural herbs and cannabis makes it easier to sleep and may reduce the intensity of symptoms.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh turmeric root for this cannabis cold flu remedy?
Yes — fresh turmeric root works even better than ground turmeric. Slice it thin (like the ginger) and add it to the water. Fresh turmeric has more active curcumin content. The ground version in this cannabis ginger turmeric tea is a convenient substitute.
Does boiling the water destroy the THC in the infused honey?
Yes, adding infused honey to boiling water will degrade THC. Always let the tea cool to a comfortable drinking temperature before stirring in the infused honey cold remedy. Below 65°C (150°F) is safe for preserving cannabinoids.
Can I substitute infused maple syrup in this cannabis cold remedy recipe?
Absolutely. Infused maple syrup works as a direct swap for infused honey — use the same amount. The flavor profile will differ slightly (maple is less sweet than honey) but the cannabis cold flu remedy effect is the same.
How many times a day should I drink this?
Once a day is Fordee’s approach when sick. Additional cups of plain herbal tea (without cannabis) throughout the day keep you hydrated and support recovery without overdoing the THC dosage.
